Just a reminder that the Textbook Buyback will be held June 2 – June 9th. This year, the buyback is done online, with your books dropped off at the school store for shipment. There are detailed instructions on how to do this on the RPCS website.

However, if I ordered your books for you this school year (07/08), you will need to follow one extra step. This is all explained on the website, but in a nutshell, this is what you need to do:

 

 

Click on the “Online Buyback” icon located on the website

Select “Sell My Books

Follow all of the instructions until you reach “Create Quote”

At this point you will be asked to enter your user name – this will be the first part of your RPCS email address – kriegerk – use last name and first initial ONLY, NOT @RPCS.org

You will then be instructed to enter your password. You must click “Forgot Your Password” at this point and wait a few seconds for your new password to be emailed to you. Once you receive this password, enter it and continue on – following the instructions until you actually print out your receipt and UPS label.

Bring the receipts and books to the Bookstore, pack them up and you are good to go. You MUST HAVE these receipts with you.

If you have any questions or need help, come see me and we can walk through it together.

Thanks, Mrs. Krieger

Much more than a day camp - each week is filled with fun activities, field trips and adventures, culinary and creative arts, community service and leadership opportunities especially for you and your friends. Discover who you are and what you love!  This is a great chance to grow and bond, in an environment that instills values, self-discovery, creativity and imagination – and fosters independence. Develop long-lasting friendships with your peers.
